Public archaeology (along with case studies)

In this module we will look into the concept of Public Archaeology, or rather the concepts, as there are various approaches. We are not going to look at it from a practical point of view, by highlighting all the different means to engage with the public, or by showing good practices. Instead, we will look into the developments that started and stimulated the engagement with the public in various parts of the world and into some of the many challenges Public Archaeology faces today.
